When Yuba Plays the Rhumba on the Tuba
His name was Yuba, He was homely, he was dumb. And so was Yuba Just a big ambitious bum, He wouldn't do-a So much as chew a piece of gum So this is news to me.
I understand-a He's an overnight success, He's in demand-a. And you never could have guessed. Well, he found a big bass tuba Then he bummed his way to Cuba And the rest (and the rest) is history.
Down in Havana there's a funny-looking boob-a, He plays the rhumba round the tuba down in Cuba. Oh when his sap'll sell an apple But this cap'd rather grapple With his oompah-oompah-oompah. They prefer it to the booba-doopa-doopa. They love the rhumba round the tuba down in Cuba.
It doesn't take him very long to get a tumble, Oh, all the rhumba lovers go into their rumble. Oh, how I'd like to be his double, For without a bit of trouble With his oompah-oompah-oompah He can knock eleven ladies for a loop-a. They love the rhumba round the tuba down in Cuba.
He's not a green horn, He blows a mean horn, Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com A must be seen horn, Oh he's a riddle.
Why, all Havana loves the sunny-lookin' boob-a, Who plays the rhumba round the tuba down in Cuba. I can't believe it but they tell us Every peanut vendor's jealous Of his oompah-oompah-oompah, They prefer it to the boopa-doopa-doopa. They love the rhumba round the tuba down in Cuba.
They love his oompah-oompah-oompah-oomp.
He blows a mean horn, He's not a green horn, A must be seen horn, Oh he's a riddle.
Why, all Havana loves the sunny-lookin' boob-a, Who plays the thumba round the tuba down in Cuba. He's getting wealthy, strong and hearty Thanks to plenty good Bacardi And his oompah-oompah-oompah, Oh he knocks the booba-doopa for a loop-ah. They love the rhumba round the tuba down in Cuba.
They love the rhumba round the tuba down in Cuba. They love his oompah-oompah-oompah-oompah Oomp! Oomp! Oomp!!
